161: Chapter 161 You, Versailles?

Yun Ge nodded with a smile. The person greeting him was the Archer Ma Mingteng; besides him, there were two others who were also Yun Ge's friends: the Summoner Wang Yilin and the Priest Yan Ping.

As for the tank and warrior in their team, one was named Zhao Pingli and the other Li Zhihai; Yun Ge didn't know them.

Su Lei also knew them, waved happily at the group, and chimed in familiarly:

"It's just for leveling up; leveling up is truly slow."

"What level are you guys?"

Ma Mingteng revealed his level: he was already level 36.

"Level 36... You're leveling up quite fiercely."

Ma Mingteng's level was a bit beyond Su Lei's expectations. Su Lei and Ye Zi had been following Yun Ge to fight monsters. Yun Ge had infinite mana and didn't need to rest to recover it, and their team only had three people splitting experience. By all logic, Su Lei's level should have been higher than Ma Mingteng's.

But now, Ma Mingteng's level was 2 levels higher than Su Lei's.

Could this guy also have accessories that boost experience? Or perhaps, his damage is very high?

"You guys are the same. We see you every morning and every evening. It feels like you run dungeons so many times a day. As expected of Yun Ge, your dungeon-clearing speed is fast."

"Not at all, you guys aren't slow either."

"By the way, Su Lei, since you guys run dungeons so many times, have you gotten any good gear?"

"Good gear?"

Su Lei took out the silver bracers that the boss had just dropped: "Does this count? We just got it. It's level 30 silver-tier bracers, heavy armor."

As soon as the shimmering silver bracers were brought out, they caught the attention of the tank in Ma Mingteng's team: "Are you selling these bracers? I just happen to be missing that slot."

"Of course I'm selling them. I already have some, and the other two can't use them."

"Since we're all friends, if you want them, I'll give you a friend price."

Zhao Pingli looked like he really wanted them. He turned around and discussed it in a low voice with Ma Mingteng and Wang Yilin for a moment. Yun Ge noticed Ma Mingteng take out some gold coins and give them to Zhao Pingli.

No way, does he have to borrow money to buy a piece of silver gear?

At this level, who doesn't have a few hundred gold coins on them? Silver gear isn't that expensive, and Su Lei even gave a friend price out of respect for Ma Mingteng and Wang Yilin.

In the end, Zhao Pingli took out 100 gold coins to buy the bracers.

Yun Ge took a moment to check the Trading House. Bracers with similar stats were basically over 120 gold coins. Su Lei had indeed charged much less.

After the two teams exchanged pleasantries, they entered their respective dungeons. Once there was no one else around, Zhao Pingli asked:

"Are those three people your friends? I've been observing them recently. They basically come out every 1-2 hours. We spend over an hour just fighting the boss. I thought they weren't fighting the boss just to level up."

"I didn't expect them to fight the boss too, and even get silver gear."

Zhao Pingli was very satisfied with buying the level 30 silver bracers for 100 gold coins. His defense and health had increased quite a bit, and he would be able to survive longer when fighting the boss later, which was an improvement for the whole team.

Ma Mingteng smiled slightly: "Do you not recognize that Elementalist's name?"

"Elementalist?"

"Is it that one called Yun Ge? It feels a bit familiar, but I just can't remember."

"It's right that it's familiar. This Yun Ge is no simple person. He was the one who killed the Abyssal Sovereign that attacked Sword Immortal City. A while ago, when the Awakened Alliance army attacked the abyss, he was the one who broke both Soul Springs."

"Otherwise, we might still not have destroyed the second Soul Spring even now."

"So it was him!"

Although Zhao Pingli wasn't a high level and didn't pay much attention to these things, he did know about the system announcements. After Ma Mingteng's reminder, he immediately realized that the Elementalist was actually a big shot!

"That Elementalist can easily take down even the Abyssal Sovereign and the Soul Springs; the boss of this kind of dungeon is nothing at all."

"So that's how it is. I misjudged him!"

Zhao Pingli felt a bit regretful. He should have rushed over to add him as a friend earlier. No wonder there were only 3 people in their team; they were truly big shots.

Thinking about it this way, he might have a chance too, right?

Zhao Pingli had only teamed up with Ma Mingteng and the others in the last half month, so they weren't very close before. Now that he saw Yun Ge's team didn't have a tank, his mind immediately became active.

Ma Mingteng, on the other hand, recalled the first day he met Yun Ge. Come to think of it, almost a year had passed.

Back then, Yun Ge was still timidly looking for people to team up with for leveling in the Sword Immortal City plaza, and because his level was low, he had been rejected countless times. Who would have thought that in less than a year, Yun Ge had already become an outstanding figure in the Awakened Alliance. As long as his level went up, Yun Ge would inevitably become one of the high-ranking members of the Awakened Alliance.

"I must work hard too..." Ma Mingteng gripped the longbow in his hand and secretly vowed to himself.

Meanwhile, in another dungeon, Yun Ge was chatting with Su Lei about the recent transaction while fighting monsters.

"Why is that guy named Zhao Pingli so poor? He couldn't even take out 100 gold coins and had to borrow from others."

"We pick up over ten gold coins every day while fighting monsters, right?"

"Plus the gear we get, it wouldn't be normal if we didn't have dozens of gold coins coming in a day."

Su Lei heard this and made an exaggerated expression: "Yun Ge, you are humble-bragging!"

"Huh?" Yun Ge really didn't understand.

"Yun Ge, you have infinite mana, so you don't understand. Teams outside struggle to death just fighting mobs of the same level. They have to keep drinking potions, and potions cost money. Plus, no one dares to fight over 100 mobs at once like you do."

"If you kill monsters slowly, gear durability drops fast, and repairing gear is very expensive. Some good gear even requires additional ores to repair. Especially for tank classes, repairing gear is insanely expensive. After all the miscellaneous expenses, not everyone can get as many gold coins as we do."

"So tank classes are generally very poor."

"And fighting bosses, you kill the boss with just a few skills. Even if it doesn't drop silver gear, the bronze gear it drops can sell for dozens of gold coins. But they are different. Normally, if they can kill a boss within 2 hours, they are already very impressive."

"Yun Ge, do you remember the first dungeon we ran? We couldn't even beat the boss in there at all."

That was indeed the case.

Even now, after Yun Ge had become so powerful, he still hadn't killed the Fire Barbarian Shaman Chief even once back then. In that case, not everyone could get as many gold coins as he could.

"But it's also a bit strange that Ma Mingteng's level is higher than you two."

"I'm also very puzzled. Logically, since you, Yun Ge, are bringing us to level up, Ye Zi and my levels should be higher than theirs. Ma Mingteng's talent must be quite high."

Yun Ge remembered that Ma Mingteng had been solo-leveling for a long time, so that must be the case.

While they were talking, Su Lei lured another bunch of mutated ants for Yun Ge to fight. At this moment, a red system announcement flashed before the three of them:

System Announcement: Warrior Li Shaopeng has discovered the level 40 dungeon 'Scholomance'.

Su Lei's face lit up with joy: "A new dungeon has been discovered!"
